General Degrees and structured degrees:

A General Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Social Science degree: a formative degree which requires students to study two approved majors, selected from a wide choice of subjects. This type of degree programme is for students with a general interest in the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences, who wish to construct their own course of study in a formative degree, rather than being committed to a prescribed set curriculum.

Structured degree programmes: special combinations of disciplines and courses with each year of study building on the knowledge and skills developed during the previous year. This type of degree programme is for students with an interest in specific aspects of the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences and who are willing to commit themselves to a tightly-structured curriculum.
